Abu Dhabi , General info:
1/10

Very dirty, very hard to find a building because there is no proper road numbering system.

It is almost impossible to change your job and if you try you will be EXPELLED from the country for 1 year.

Also there is a monopoly for the phone companies as the main company (Etisalat) blocks everything on the internet including SKYPE!!!!! Whats the next thing they will block, google maybe?? They have already blocked parts of youtube and in the past they have blocked youtube!!
